Please style it like that.  Please.

Not sure if serious?

Denim jacket fit looks good over a tee (?) but I think it's going to look and feel too tight with anything thicker underneath it.

Jacket fit looks pretty perfect to me.

Looks like a good size for you. Body will get too long, I'd think, if you size up

And shoulder seems are already going over the edge

Last Reebok's I had were a pair of mids I traded away for a 12 pack of mountain dew while I was in teen rehab so this feels like I've finally got my life back together.

Couple of WvG popcorn knit beanies (confidential to everyone: these things are awesome and absurdly inexpensive. Great gifts if you don't know what to get someone)

Also pre-ordered some WvG bamboo-sorona blend u-necks when those dropped a couple of weeks ago.

I kinda wanna see some real U-neck pics before I commit. I still wear the crap out of my other regular crewneck T's from Mauro though.

I think it's a pretty safe assumption that he'll make more now that he's got a pattern and a sample that he's happy with. I'll post some pics when I get mine.

Thanks for all the feedback on the denim jacket.

It does feel a little tight when wearing another sweater under that jacket. Would the jacket look less tight after I broke it in?
One of the shoulders definitely fits tighter than the other shoulder. The shoulders and the length doesn't actually increase that much in the next size up. According to Blue Owl, the shoulder goes from 18 inches to 18.75 inches. The length increases from 26.5 to 26.75 inches. I'm tempted to go back to Self Edge and try the larger one on again, But I feel like they already hate me there for trying the jacket on so much ahah.

Don't care what the store/sales people think. You're there to buy something. As long as you're not asking for a lot of help or making them do too much work, screw it, you're the customer. You're spending money. And this is coming from a guy who's worked retail and hates time wasters. They're there and being paid by the store to help you if you need it, or at the very least they can give you space while you do your thing.

Mannnnnnn, this thing is beautiful. I mean it ranks just below the dimples on the lower back of women for me. The first leather jacket that ive taken out of the box and said yep, thats a keeper. Will have to do fake WAYWT

Don't overthink it - it looks great. If you go back and get the bigger size, you'll regret that at some point too.

You're probably right. I'll end up getting annoyed that the shoulders are a little too long with the other jacket. Thanks for your opinion! I'm just gonna prey Im done growing haha, only downside is that it squeezes my forearms when I layer it.

Until science gives us clothing that will resize itself to our proportions every time we put it on, no one jacket is going to work under all circumstances. The jacket that fits perfectly over a t-shirt will be too snug with a hoodie under it; the overcoat you wear with a suit or sportcoat is going to look terrible over just a button-down.
